Suriya's Etharkkum Thunindhavan is set to invade screens on March 10 and is coming out with massive expectations. Produced by the prestigious Sun Pictures banner and directed by blockbuster filmmaker Pandiraj, the upcoming venture is coming out as a pan-Indian film in 5 languages and has Suriya sharing screen space with youth sensation Priyanka Arul Mohan, with chart-buster composer D. Imman scoring the background music and the songs. With only a few more days for the film's theatrical release, the highly-anticipated Etharkkum Thunindhavan trailer has been released on Thursday. 

The Etharkkum Thunindhavan trailer starts off teasing the high-octane action in the film before the tone shifts to giving fans a glimpse at the fun awaiting them. The plot set amidst a rural backdrop shows Suriya as a happy-go-lucky guy, who enjoys the company of his family and friends and is someone who is loved by all. Priyanka Arul Mohan, as the heroine, gives Suriya company and their fun romance looks to be a big USP. The ET trailer then progresses to show a dramatic turn of events after a tragedy strikes Suriya and his family, with veteran actors Sathyaraj and Saranya Ponvannan playing the role of his parents. The Etharkkum Thunindhavan trailer concludes with several intense action sequences where Suriya flexes his muscles taking on the baddies leaving us wanting for more of the out-and-out family entertainer. 

Sun Pictures is leaving no stone unturned with their Etharkkum Thunindhavan and will be looking to hit the bullseye once again. The film is also Suriya's first full-length collaboration with director Pandiraj after the actor-producer bankrolled Kadaikutty Singam under his 2D Entertainment banner, which had his brother Karthi in the lead role, including Pasanga 2 starring Jyothika. Etharkkum Thunindhavan features an ensemble cast like Doctor fame Vinay Rai as the antagonist, followed by M. S. Bhaskar, Dhivya Dhuraisamy, Master and Bigg Boss Tamil 5 fame Ciby Chandran, Vada Chennai actor Saran Shakthi, Ilavarasu, Subbu Panchu among others.

Suriya's Etharkkum Thunindhavan is one of the most anticipated films of this year and the fans are eagerly looking forward to witnessing the film. Etharkkum Thunindhavan is directed by Pandiraj and has Doctor fame Priyanka Arul Mohan playing the female lead. Produced by Sun Pictures on a grand scale, the film has music composed by D Imman and cinematography handled by R Rathnavelu. Etharkkum Thunindhavan was scheduled to release in theatres on February 4, 2022, but, the release was indefinitely postponed due to the third wave of Covid 19. Now that the Covid cases are coming down gradually, the already postponed films are working out on their new release plans.

Most of the movies have also confirmed their new release plans. SS Rajamouli's highly anticipated action drama, RRR will be releasing on March 25, 2022. Having said that, rumours were recently rife that Etharkkum Thunindhavan might go for a direct OTT release and this news worried the fans. This rumour started to spread on social media following the silence of Sun Pictures with regards to the announcement of the new release date. However, director Pandiraj vehemently denied the speculations and confirmed that ET will release only in theatres, no matter what.

Pandiraj's confirmation came as a big sigh of relief for the fans. Suriya's last two films - Soorarai Pottru and Jai Bhim were direct OTT releases and it has been 2.5 years since the fans saw Suriya on the big screen. Following Pandiraj's confirmation about the theatrical release of ET, industry insiders have revealed that the film is likely to hit the screens on March 10, Thursday. An official confirmation in that regard is awaited. Etharkkum Thunindhavan will have Vinay playing the key antagonist, while the supporting cast includes Sathyaraj, Saranya Ponvannan, MS Bhaskar, Ilavarasu, Devadarshini, Bigg Boss fame Ciby, Akash Premkumar, Pugazh, Ramar, Thangadurai, Dhivya Dhuraisamy, and others.

Suriya has taken his fans and film buffs by surprise with his latest tweet which has garnered huge attention. Suriya has released a new picture from the sets of his next film, Suriya 40, which is directed by Pandiraj. The shooting of Suriya 40 began towards the end of February and director Pandiraj shot the sequences that don't involve Suriya for the first few days.

In the picture shared by Suriya, we see him holding a pistol gun pointing at someone and the picture creates good curiosity. However, we only get to see him in silhouette.

The makers haven't revealed the face and it looks like Suriya's makeover is going to be a suspense until the film's release.

Suriya 40 is produced by Sun Pictures and has music scored by D Imman. Director Pandiraj is known for his rural family entertainers and Suriya 40 is also expected to strike big at the box office. It has been quite some time since we saw Suriya in an out and out rural family drama and it is going to be exciting to see him in that backdrop again. The ace actor, who is riding high on the massive success of his last film, Soorarai Pottru, will want to continue the success momentum with this film, as well. Suriya 40's editing is handled by Ruben, while the stunt choreography is done by Anbariv.

Tentatively called Suriya 40, this film will be bankrolled by Kalanithi Maran's Sun Pictures and the film is planned to be shot on a grand scale.

Doctor fame Priyanka Arul Mohan will be seen as the female lead and it is indeed good that the young talent has already bagged a mega biggie in the initial stages of her career. The film features an ensemble star cast that includes the likes of Sathyaraj, Saranya Ponvannan, Devadarshini, Ilavarasu, Subbu Panchu, Tiger Thangadurai, 'Vada Chennai' fame Saran Shakthi, Master fame Cibi, and others. We are informed by our close sources that the first schedule of Suriya 40 will take place from today (February 15) to February 27.

After recovering from Corona virus and completing the quarantine process, Suriya will join the sets of the film soon. The film will have music scored by D Imman who is collaborating with Pandiraj for the third time after the massive success of Kadai Kutty Singam and Namma Veettu Pillai.

Suriya delivered a career best performance in Soorarai Pottru last year, with the film going on to receive universal acclaim. The actor also completed shooting for Mani Ratnam's anthology film titled Navarasa directed by Gautham Menon, which will stream on Netflix. He was also announced to be collaborating with blockbuster production banner Sun Pictures for a venture tentatively titled Suriya 40, with director Pandiraj on board. In that light, Sun Pictures on Sunday dropped yet another big update announcing composer D. Imman has been roped in to compose the music for Suriya 40

The announcement has come out on D. Imman's birthday today, which no doubt will give him and his fans much happiness. Sun Pictures wrote on Twitter, "Music Director  @immancomposer  will be composing the music for #Suriya40bySunPictures  @Suriya_offl  #DirectorPandiraj #Suriya40". It is to be noted that D. Imman will be scoring for the first time for a full-length Suriya film after he churned out hit tunes for the actor's 2D Entertainment production venture, Kadaikutty Singam, in 2018. Suriya had made a cameo appearance in Kadaikutty Singam, which had his brother Karthi in the lead role. Check out below Sun Pictures' announcement on D. Imman coming on board Suriya 40:

Suriya 40 is gearing up to be a first of many sorts for all those associated as it marks the first time Suriya is acting in the lead role under Pandiraj's direction after he made a special appearance in Pasanga 2, which as well was produced by the actor under his 2D Entertainment banner. Production on Suriya 40 had been announced to begin in February, with Pandiraj sometime back revealing that the team is finalizing on two important characters for the film. Pandiraj informed fans that updates will be made on a regular basis, while teasing that the film will be laden with action. 

There were speculations a while back that South Indian sensation Rashmika Mandanna was being eyed to play the female lead in Suriya 40, including several other rumors on the film's casting. However, Pandiraj last year clarified that no such decision has been made and requested fans not to believe in any of the cast and crew rumors that were doing the rounds online. Apart from Suriya 40 and Navarasa, Suriya is also attached to director Vetri Maaran's Vaadivasal being produced by Kalaipuli S Thanu's V Creations, which as well marks the actor’s first-time association with the National Award-winning director. 

Director Pandiraj assures to do a film with Suriya very soon - check out his viral tweet!

Director Pandiraj is known for his wholesome family entertainers with strong and beautiful emotions that connect with the masses. He had last directed Sivakarthikeyan's Namma Veettu Pillai, which turned out to be a big hit at the box office and also earned a positive reception among the audience. The talented director is currently busy scripting his next film and details about the project are yet to be known. Meanwhile, Pandiraj took to his Twitter space this morning to share his review on Jyotika's Ponmagal Vandhal which is set to stream on Prime Video platform from tomorrow (May 29).

Replying to the tweet, one of the fans asked Pandiraj if he would do a film with Suriya and interestingly, the National Award winning director replied, "Very Soon". This answer from Pandiraj has excited Suriya's fans and the tweet has already gone viral. It can be recalled that Pandiraj was signed by Suriya's 2D Entertainment for another film, post the blockbuster success of Kadaikutty Singam.

A year back, Pandiraj had said that he is writing a rural action family entertainer script for Suriya and going by his latest tweet, it looks like the project will materialize very soon. We will have to wait for a few more months to get a better clarity about the project. For now, Suriya is awaiting the release of Soorarai Pottru and has two big projects lined up - Aruvaa with Hari and Vaadivaasal with Vetri Maaran. Check out Pandiraj tweet below:

Kedi Billa Killadi Ranga was a hit with Sivakarthikeyana and Vemal under Pandiraj's direction. Now, the director has decided to make a sequel of the film but with some other actor.. We hear that GV Prakash was approached to play the lead role and the actor has given his nod. We wonder why Sivakarthikeyan is not a part of the sequel. Too pricey, maybe?
